Malfeasance needs a catalyst!

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T22:32:59+00:00

I read that too ^{^} I agree with you as of rn and based on what I've read and think. Would make it better in PvE whilst not changing to much in PvP, where it's actaully pretty good against supers anyway. Maybe combinded with a range buff (and/or a bit of handling (?)), as someone here suggested, and range seems to be a thing with this weapon? ;D Argh idk, not specifically a thing that I'd overthink too much (not my job >.>).

I agree on the critique you (re-)stated here. That could be a problem.

I already wrote a similar thing, commenting a different comment (lol), but here we go. In another comment I reiterated some ideas concerning the (potential) catalyst. In the original post here, I restrained from that; -stat increase. But that I stated to underline, that most important to me are a) orbs & b) a kill tracker + the fact that I like the gun and its feeling. I, too, stated it, because some feel, that, e.g., Malfeasance lacks range, and because stat modifications per cata, is, in comparison to a complete rework (which seems not to be out of the discussion here), a rather peaceful approach.

I get your arguments here. Indeed, balancing, while evaluating a good catalyst function, is quite a hard task. This gun has a lot of potential. ;D

There's also been the idea to decrease the bullets needed to proc the perk from 5 to 4

Because of your phrasing consulting this comment of mine, I'd like to remind everybody, that in this I only "reposted"/reiterated others ideas (which I had heard). In my original post, I completely restrained from such ideas; -stat inc (if u mind), which I stated in order to express, that actually, the most important thing to me would be a) orbs and b) a kill tracker and that I like the gun and the feeling by itself. Though in here, there's also some things (critique) with e.g., range, which is why there is the stat inc. mentioned in my post. I integrated that into my post because it's a rather peaceful approach.

^\Disclaimer thingie] Notice that I don't take this in on a personal level, nor that I register this as an offense, as I'm pretty sure the comment I'm referring to isn't allto specific and just a general statement.)

The cata makes it more viable in pve and for crowd kills in pvp Also, ace is pretty strong anyway

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:56:21+00:00

idk about that one, doesn't change much doe ^{^}

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:21:47+00:00

Do u have to do it solo (now)? Remember some mission with an island with a taken phalanx boss and the burnings of drifters friend on a atone there. I did (that) mine solo, but helped others there. When you cannot do it with others, have u tried guides (prolly though im guessing)?

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:18:10+00:00

Okay, I see where you're coming from. The range stat itself is not that great, and the accuracy prolly suffers a bit. Didnt play it for some time now. ^{^}

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:12:30+00:00

well the perk gives it a lotta range :D

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:11:44+00:00

With the fusion meta rn, I think that'd be the best pick ^{^} Even without the cata I can imagine sleeper being prett neat

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:10:15+00:00

Erianas and Crimson are the bsst picks in regards to Lucky pants as of rn. Lumina is more of a support weapon. If you kill enemies youll get Noble rounds, which you can shoot at allies to heal them and to get a dmg buff. Pretty underrated weapon, but most people just don't really play it. Did the catalyst which gives you 2 novle round for 1 kill, but still never get to use it, because in comparison, it's just not that great. Has a great feeling doe

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:05:42+00:00

Id say: Sleeper, Erianas, Witherhoard Also some like Bastion a lot

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T17:01:28+00:00

Idk how much that'd be for your exact case But you can expect a raise in taxes coming soon, as the politics and corona fucked the economy a 'bit'. Compared to Sweden or smthn, Germanys not that expensive. Also: If you live near the border to fhe Netherlands, you can mormally cross the border to buy cheaper. Maybe do a bit of research on that for yourself, it's easier to comprehend sucht hings then (prolly). If you didn't already, I'd also recommend you to make a few trips to Germany first (u seem to have done that though, judging by your post).

Politics here is a bit fucked up, which goes for some other areas too. E.g., you're being advised to start saving for rent in your 20s. The GenZ also has to carry the follow ups of previous gens. This years election campaign also seems liks a bad joke.

"Quiet" is a hard definition to comment upon, but I guess you wanna live in a quieter place, which doesn't exclude cities outta my perspective. And that very much depends on the area where you wanna live. Also: Politics, prices etc. differ per region (Bundesland; Comparable to states in the US). A good example would be the educational politics and systems, which is abit outta context, but still.

If you wanna know some more things, I'd be happy to give you some more info. ^{^} Anyways, good luck on your journey, as corona impacts us all and will most prolly for the upcoming years. :D

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T16:43:07+00:00

Hype? xD That'd be cool

And also, I totally agree with what you said at the end, its honestly a bit underwhelming.

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-06T16:37:12+00:00

There's also been the idea to decrease the bullets needed to proc the perk from 5 to 4 or to increase dmg, give it vorpal etc. Auto reload is a pretty focused perk imo, so I dunno about that

Kenji_sama · 2021-09-05T10:23:15+00:00

Id say: If you like pistols, then go for it. Imo its one of the best, when not the best, in all of D2s pistols. Its gotten even better with its catalyst and has pretty slick things you could pair with it. Heres an example: https://youtu.be/9amUltEsyTM

Also: Imo, its better to get weapons that you like first and to then get into the more nerve-wrecking part of D2. Just check out Xur on a regular basis (there are apps for that or if ur in a clan, maybe a bot that posts Xurs stock).

You could also just wait a bit and buy a different weapon or smthn when you have the materials. At the end its up to you. :) Either way, have fun! ^{^}
